Biography

Enjoyed the healthiest season of his young career in 2013, appearing in all 16 games for the first time and posting career highs in every statistical category.

Set new personal bests for tackles (32) and solo tackles (26), recorded his first career INT, and tied previous career highs with 13 passes defensed and a sack.

Also emerged as a more consistent contributor on special teams in 2013, leading the club with a career-high 12 tackles on the coverage units.

Carried the momentum of a strong offseason into the 2012 training camp, where he was vying to start opposite veteran Tramon Williams as the No. 2 CB in the team’s base defense.

Suffered a shoulder injury on special teams late in the preseason opener at San Diego (Aug. 9), a setback that sidelined him for the remainder of the summer and the first six weeks of the regular season.

Following an injury to CB Sam Shields (shin/ankle), made his season debut in Week 7 at St. Louis and went on to start five of the next six contests.

Finished the season with 18 tackles (17 solo) and a sack, and tied for fourth on the club with 13 passes defensed.

Also contributed regularly on special teams, highlighted by his blocked punt in Week 8 vs. Jacksonville that LB Dezman Moses recovered in the end zone for a TD. The play marked the Packers’ first blocked punt since Sept. 29, 2003 (LB Marcus Wilkins), and the first that was returned for a TD since Dec. 2, 1990 (S Tiger Greene).

Initially competed for the fourth cornerback job early in his first training camp as a rookie in 2011, but suffered injuries that saw him miss much of the preseason.

Appeared in just two games as a rookie, playing only on special teams, where he was credited with one tackle.
